Happy Women's History Month! Welllllll....I had promised y'all some dance history, so here you go. First up is the Queen of the Cakewalk, Aida Overton Walker. Born in NYC in 1880, she'd go on to become the first Black choreographer to work on Broadway.

The mechanics of a stomacher more easily discernible in this 1730s survival of cotton embroidered with polychrome silk & silver gilt yarn. The tabs for pinning & linen ties illustrate how it was anchored to the torso, part of an open robe of equal splendour @mfaboston.bsky.social #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

I met Dr. Mary Beth Rose while doing my PhD in Toronto but living in Chicago. If I recall correctly, she came to a talk I gave at the Newberry Library and then took me out for lunch soon after. It was so kind of her to take an interest in my research. May her memory be for a blessing.

I was stunned to hear of the passing of Dr. Mary Beth Rose. She was a mentor to me at NU, and introduced me to Lady Mary Wroth (the subject of my novel) plus a ton of other remarkable #earlymodern women writers. She was a wonderfully curious, knowledgeable, generous, and supportive person.
